That Butler, Heading Home

A/N: I am really great full to with the reviews :) with work, it has been hard to get the motivation to write... and I'm thinking of writing a Hetalia fic so... any how on with it. I don't own Kuroshitsuji or any of that suff

Daylight was finally breaking as the ship gently rocked side to side. Snake was finally sleeping soundly curled up against Ciel. The Earl decided to stay with his footman after a storm had hit and caused the waters to be rough. Not only did Ciel not like thunder and lightning, but neither did Snake. He was up most of the night, fear written on his face bringing back bad memories. Not to mention his seasickness.

Sebastian seemed to be sleeping peacefully, as he has not stirred when a crew member came in and checked his stitching. Ciel was hoping desperately that they would allow Sebastian to go home rather than send him to a hospital. I might have some convincing to do. He thought. He was the Earl Phantomhive! They have to listen to him! Or so he thought. In the middle of that thought, his aunt came in to check on him, his butler, and his footman.

"Aunt Frances..."

"Oh, Ciel... " she sounded a bit distraught.

"What's wrong? "

"You butler. He isn't doing so well. It's a miracle he is alive..."

"What do you mean he isn't doing well?"

"The crew member that just came in said that he has a fever and is unconscious. We pull into port somewhere around three. He's going to need to be in the hospital."

"No." He stated shortly.

"What?"

"I will have a private doctor monitor him at the mansion. I'd rather him be where I am. And on top of that, if he does give up. I want him to be in his home, not some hospital. ..." With that Frances sighed but nodded and told Ciel to get some sleep. He watched her leave before he took her advice and started to drift off. Just as he was almost asleep they heard a loud crackling over the ships announcement system. (A/N: me being in the navy the BMW or Boatswains Mate of the Watch will pipe, it's like a whistle thing.. Google it. Over the ships 1 main circuit or 1MC so I may keep things short and say 1MC)

"Good morning everyone! This is your Captain we will be pulling into port about one. We are traveling a bit faster through the waters so passenger of the RMS Campania can be back with their families. I must remind all passengers to wait to exit the ship until we move the injured first."

After that message, Ciel let out a sigh of relief. That didn't last for long as Snake started fussing in his sleep in what was an obvious nightmare. With a more frustrated sigh, Ciel gently woke the normally quiet footman. Snake snapped awake instantly and took in his surroundings before whimpering and trying to go back to sleep. Ciel did the same . The next time they wake was around noon when the ships 1MC went off with someone saying "station special sea and anchor detail. Station special sea and anchor detail "* he was only hoping they pulled in soon.

Yay! This chapter is done! Side note* sea and anchor is another navy term to alert the deck seamen (me and my department. ... undersigned seamen and boatswains mates ) to go to their assigned stations for mooring as well as the group of deck seamen for the anchoring. Google that too... but anyway don't hate me! -Shadowtiger
